Chapter 186: The Lost Seed

The day after Christmas, Cheng Ran went to the Tianxing Gym and listened to Jiang Zhou talk about Yan Tongfang's inspection, "Mayor Yan mainly focused on the Internet entrepreneurship of Garage Coffee, and inspected the start-ups that are now settled in our gym, hoping that we will play a role as a window for the Internet business in Chengdu." ”

Cheng Ran thought to himself that this is the main purpose, the Internet is the wave of the 1.0 era at this time, and this revolution led by computer and information technology has been widely regarded as the third industrial revolution of mankind.

This is no different from the previous gold digging and impact creation movements in human history, and whoever stands at the top will determine the future. At this time, some forward-looking officials in Rongcheng actually made efforts to boost this area as early as a rainy day, and such vanguards and waves are emerging in various cities and regions, so this is the real reason for the arrival of executive vice mayors like Yan Tongfang.

Other themed board game bars and broadband Internet cafes are actually more attractive than "garage coffee", which originated from the high-tech mecca of Silicon Valley and has a long-term vision that makes people reverie, and has more appetite for the government.

Cheng Ran said, "How are the third and fourth floors now?"

"Most of the third floor is a public area, providing coffee and a working platform, in addition to the fourth floor, we named it 'Beehive', with ground glass and plastic steel to separate a hundred large and small compartments, the smallest of these compartments is five square meters, can provide a single office, the large twenty or thirty square meters, can be co-working with multiple people, of course, these are flexible, according to the actual needs of the start-up company and allocated to rent, the company has grown, can flexibly increase the rental space. It is estimated that our hive can support the development of many minimally invasive enterprises to medium scale. ”

At this time, most people are looking for some dilapidated buildings, and few people can afford the high rent cost of core commercial and residential buildings, and the garage coffee workshop of Tianxing Daoguan, on the one hand, has low rent, relatively excellent environment, and can also play the role of an information transfer station, many people who want to do a career can get key information about the market, management, partners, job search and so on from the exchange of the platform.

"So far, there are more than 30 companies that have confirmed their relocation, and some of them are in the application stage. ”

"So tight?" Cheng Ran was a little surprised.

"And that's when we didn't advertise. Jiang Zhou smiled unexpectedly, "Just when the concept of garage coffee was taken out, many people came to the door." Of course, let's not mention that our gym has many 'firsts', and its reputation is here. Secondly, last time, Miss Qin's Tianxing Music used a large-scale venue to sign a contract, and this kind of thing is the easiest to spread through the cultural circle. ”

"Rongcheng is a relatively open and tolerant place, eager for new things, and we are the benchmark, and the outside world will know what to do. ”

Cheng Ran noticed the key in his words just now, and said with a smile, "Do you still need to apply when you come in?"

He originally planned the three or four floors of the Tianxing Gym, using the concept of garage coffee to do it, and more carefully delegated power to Jiang Zhou, so some details are not clear. But many times the result of only planning and delegating power has proved that the trust is not human.

On the one hand, he is not on the front line, more behind the scenes, unable to grasp the details of the front line, and secondly, he has to do everything with his hands, and the people below will also be constrained, which restricts their development space. What should I do in the future? I can't do anything without my own guidance?

Secondly, although Cheng Ran has advanced experience from the future, it does not mean that it can fully fit the times, some steps have taken a big step, and everyone understands why it is not good.

"There is no way not to apply, we are in the center of the city, the rent is not high, and secondly, the environment, some companies that rent commercial buildings in the core area of the vicinity are ready to relocate because of contract problems, come to inspect it, and immediately want to move in, I heard that the other party is an insurance company, and the personnel have one or two hundred, and a sign will occupy most of our area, even if the rent is high, and I quickly refused!"

"There are also plans to sell boxed lunches to the Internet café below, and they also want to rent our land, or they think the rent is cheap and want to rent a few warehouses...... As soon as these come, we will change our tone, so of course we must review it, and secondly, we must clarify the contract to avoid one thing in person and one thing after the other. If a company is found to be in violation, it will be expelled. ”

Cheng Ran nodded, he told Jiang Zhou the concept, Jiang Zhou also flew to Zhongguancun in the capital to investigate, it can be said that the planning concept of three or four floors is very thorough.

"How's the income?"

"Our rent is not high, even if the whole is saturated, it is 60,000 a month, and now the contracted occupancy rate is 40%, and the rental income is not very good, but now there are many people in the café on the third floor, and the daily income has exceeded the board game bar on the first floor. From this month to today, the board game bar has a revenue of 180,000 yuan. The revenue on the third floor is 220,000. ”

Jiang Zhou couldn't help but be excited.

The revenue of the board game bar on the first floor of the Tianxing Daoguan is no longer as good as the business when it first opened, of course, because Rongcheng also has many similar businesses to imitate, and some of them have been diverted, but now it has stabilized, and there is also a stable sales of the Three Kingdoms board game, even under the impact of piracy and various network media in later generations, the Three Kingdoms Kill can still have stable sales revenue, which proves that this is a core market. Now Cheng Ran has played some cards, and has also created this core market.

And the three-story coffee income exceeds the first floor, Cheng Ran is not surprised, garage coffee is not unfamiliar in later generations, nor popular, anyone who wants to run a company like this, in fact, the final choice can only be one point, that is, sell coffee well, maybe you can still maintain the balance of payments, some income, if you want to participate in the various entrepreneurial opportunities here, most of them are dead.

Don't participate in all kinds of entrepreneurship when making garage coffee, this is the experience and guideline that Cheng Ran participated in in his previous life, because you can't tell how many fire pits there are, and it is easy to fall into ashes with a kind of entrepreneurial direction that is destined to become a bubble, and in the end even your own business will be smashed into it.

If you want to be an incubator in a place like this, that's not something a café can do. That's an "exploration" that can only be played by big business, or something that the government takes the lead to do.

Cheng Ran now has a place, and the place is quite large, so not only does he make coffee, but he also has the spare energy to separate it out for entrepreneurial hive rental, which is generally about the same, and he does not have the strength to go deeper into it.

But Cheng Ran is naturally different.

It's like Mayor Yan came to ask, he must have held the hope that a few seeds that can be born from here can be enough to achieve the influence of "storytelling" in the future, so even if the Tianxing Daoist Pavilion industry is small, it is not easy to miss.

"You can show me the relevant information of the company you have settled in. ”

Cheng Ran also wanted to see if he could sift out some companies that could "tell stories" in this sieve, unify and make a package, and ask for policies from Yan Tongfang.

Chengnan Group is in a debt crisis, and the property rights of the building will be mortgaged or taken over sooner or later, although Cheng Ran has signed the right to use it for 20 years, even if the property rights change hands, it will not be affected, and the important thing about the Tianxing Gym is the brand, and it doesn't care where it settles. But if there is no accident, the internal problems of the Chengnan Group are serious, and if someone wants to transfer property rights, they must want to collude with one party at a low price to take over. There will be unstable factors here, and Cheng Ran doesn't want to lose stability in the rear, so he strives to be able to move this piece and hold the property rights and land certificate of the Tianxing Daoguan Building in his own hands.

However, if you want to move this piece, the district-level energy is not enough, and you have to be at the level of Yan Tongfang.

This requires being able to impress the other party and make the other party realize that giving the place to the Tianxing Daoist Pavilion is far more valuable than giving it to real estate development.

Jiang Zhou took out the registered company directory, and Cheng Ran looked through it next to him.

After all, it is the period of the Internet boom, and some of them have the potential to come out, and they can still make a difference, but this action should be fast, and when the Internet winter comes, whether it is the capital market or external public opinion, these will collapse together, and then the situation of inspection and even emphasis like Yan Tongfang will definitely no longer exist.

Cheng Ran flipped through the stack of materials, looked at it, and fixed his eyes on one of the pages.

Blue Dot Technology.

Blue Dot ......

"This ...... Wouldn't it be......"

Cheng Ran has the impression of blue dot Linux in his memory, and this company has sinicized the earliest Chinese LINUX version. LINUX IS A FREE AND OPEN SOURCE OPERATING SYSTEM, ANYONE CAN MAINTAIN IT, CUSTOMIZE IT, AND THEN LET THE SYSTEM CONTINUE TO EVOLVE, IN FACT, THERE ARE MANY COMPANIES BASED ON THE LINUX KERNEL ARCHITECTURE TO DEVELOP THEIR OWN OPERATING SYSTEMS, THE MOST FAMOUS IS THE LATER GOOGLE'S ANDROID SYSTEM, WHICH IS BORN FROM THE LINUX KERNEL.

THE BLUE DOT COMPANY WAS FIRST FOUNDED BY A FEW YOUNG PEOPLE IN A CAFÉ, AND THEN CREATED THE BLUE DOT LINUX SYSTEM THROUGH THE CHINESE LINUX KERNEL, WHICH IS ALMOST THE EARLIEST OPERATING SYSTEM IN CHINA, AND AFTER ITS ESTABLISHMENT, IT HAS BEEN MAKING GREAT PROGRESS, AND THE FOLLOWING YEAR IT WAS LISTED ON THE NASDAQ IN THE UNITED STATES "GOLD LIST TITLE", ONCE THE SCENERY WAS UNLIMITED, AND SEVERAL YOUNG PEOPLE BECAME FAMOUS OVERNIGHT.

However, the problem is also this, the young fame and the Internet wave have lifted them to a high point, and the team only wants to quickly create embedded application products to ship to win profits, so as to be able to support the stock price, and give up the difficult and meticulous climb on the operating system technology. In addition, the young and vigorous founder did not understand the product demand and operation at all, and repeatedly made rash advances in various projects, resulting in the loss of Blue Dot in the market and falling into a vicious circle of failure.

AS A RESULT, EVEN WHEN THE LINUX ECOSYSTEM IMPROVED, THE BLUE DOT OF THE $22 STOCK PRICE AT THE PEAK OF NASDAQ FINALLY FELL TO A MISERABLE SITUATION OF 0.08 CENTS.

Later, Li Yu, as the leading founder, was finally reduced to the point that the last 10% of the shares were forced to be sold to the new shareholders, and he was also expelled by the new shareholders as "not suitable for working in the new blue point".

THE CHINESE LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM COMPANY, WHICH WAS ONCE PINNED ON HIGH HOPES TO BREAK THE MONOPOLY OF MICROSOFT'S OPERATING SYSTEM, DIED IN THE CORNER, LIKE A BUBBLE IN THE SUN.

"It can't be......"

Cheng Ran shook his head again, and then looked down at the company's qualifications.

Founder, Li Yu, Jiang Ling, Liao Miao...... Introduction: The company is committed to building a Chinese LINUX operating system, the main personal desktop linux, customized for enterprises and securities units......

Depend on......

Really.

Butterflies flap their wings.

This company, which was founded by a few young people in a café, is here for the Tianxing Gym in Rongcheng!
